Martin Bridge, Steel truss bridge in Taree, Australia.

Martin Bridge is a steel truss structure that spans 463 meters across the Manning River and rests on eleven spans supported by concrete pillars. Three additional steel girder approach sections extend from the main span to connect the bridge to both sides of the road.

The bridge opened in 1940 and replaced a steam-driven ferry service that had operated since 1902. This opening transformed how people and goods moved across the Manning River in the local region.

The bridge honours Lewis Martin, the Member for Oxley and Minister for Works and Local Government when it was built. The crossing also changed local habits: the old ferry approach on the southern bank became Old Punt Road, a name still on the map.

The bridge connects both sides of Manning River Drive and serves as the primary access route for local traffic following the Pacific Highway rerouting. Pedestrians and cyclists can use it to cross the river, though traffic can be heavy during peak hours.

The bridge's concrete cylinder legs were sunk 21 metres into the riverbed, and the Newcastle Herald reported that workers laboured in air at 241 kilopascals of pressure. They had to yawn or blow through their noses for 17 minutes before starting work and exercise every joint for 38 minutes before finishing.
